Glad to see that participation not only went up last month, but it looks like the trend is continuing... even before you know March's Sponsor. But before we get to that, congrats to the winners and thanks to all that continue to make EH-Net the place to learn, start and grow your ethical hacking career. w00t!!

Syngress Publishing has been a long supporter of the professional hacking segment of the industry. 2010 shows no sign that they are stopping. In their continued support of EH-Net, they have graciously offered up copies of their next 5 releases to not just one lucky winner but 2!! The 2 winning EH-Net members, hayabusa & former33t will each be put on the list of those who automatically receive copies of the new releases immediately upon becoming available. What a great way to increase the volumes in their technical libraries with the latest and greatest tomes from topic areas like Certification, Digital Forensics, Hacking & Penetration Testing and more. Congratulations and thanks to everyone for adding to the ever-growing repository of great professional discussions on ethical hacking.

Participation is the ONLY way to win. Start a thread that sparks lots of interest; share thoughts and experiences; help a newbie... quality is more important than quantity.

Do the words 'Offensive Security' mean anything to anyone? Hmmm... sounds like a great group to sponsor March. Considering participation is up again already, the competition may be stiff for these prizes. Yes, that is plural!
